Digital Being PC inhabiting a Medallion Disc

Ink Art from page 73 of The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules

This device looks like some sort of art déco style piece of ancient jewelry. 2 in 6 will feature genuine gold and silver decorative elements, and of these, 1 in 6 will also be fitted with gemstones which double the buy or sell price. They are very much like palm disks and feature the same chance of a potential add-on. Because they are worn on a stainless steel or leather necklace, they can often be slipped beneath a wearer’s clothing — although doing so blocks the digital being’s visual receptors unless the fabric is specially punctured or of a mesh material.

You can play these digital beings using the new rule book.

Wristwatch Projector
Ink Art from page 72 of The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules

Besides being an excellent projector that allows hands free use, this watch can also be worn under the wearer’s armor to better protect it — although anything blocking the topside projection emitter will stop the holographic image from appearing, seeing its surroundings or launching its shock generator or most other apps — yet the digital being can still verbally interact with the wearer.

Montage of assorted Digital Being personas

Digital Beings go up in rank like any other character, however because they have a few features that physical characters do not, they use their own Rank Gain matrix shown below. If this character inhabits a cyborg, android or robotic body, then these bodies also grow stronger, adapts, and improves through adventuresome exploits, and therefore also go up in rank according to their type. See the section on Digital Being Starting Container or Body on the next page for which containers and body types are eligible to go up in rank.

Unique Android Pre-Game Castes

In most cases, an android character has made its way in the post-apocalyptic world by performing some task, earning a wage, or being supplied with sufficient recharge access, lubricants, repairs and shelter in return for whatever enslavement, assignment, labor or freelance occupation it conducted. During its time in this occupation or caste it might well have suffered permanent damage due to abuse or injuries, but so too, gained new experiences, skills, and improvements to its cognitive and physical abilities.

Android Special Features
From the book: “As a character, a unique android will have random traits, skills, implants and potential features according to the tables that follow. All androids can read, write and do math. At first, androids can appear to be complex, hard to generate characters based on the extensive amount of PC creation material presented on the next 29 pages, however, creating one is really quite simple and involves one or more rolls on each of the tables to follow.”

Android Handedness

Androids, especially advanced or physically active varieties, have a much higher likelihood of being ambidextrous than human or mutant human characters do. Roll 1d10 on the following table at character generation, however, medical, technician, scientific and military android categories all gain +2 on the following 1d10 roll.



Table XR-51/ Android Handedness, Roll 1d10

1-3. Left Handed

4-9. Right Handed

10+. Ambidextrous

Android’s Hair

Androids normally come standard with stitched on nylon wigs, although many military models are entirely bald.

Sensory Capabilities of Unique Androids: Sight

At the minimum, unique androids have all the same sensory receptors as pure stock humans, but often one or more of these senses are heightened or exhibit additional capabilities.

I see the disclaimer on Google searches: Generative AI is experimental

Generative AI will always be experimental. Even if we teach a computer how to be aware of its own existence, I assume it will be a life-long student, unless we bake in some kind of retirement policy for technological constructs.

Space Force Android
These well built, advanced androids were used as security and boarding troops during operations aboard space stations and vessels, as well as deposited on the ground on moons, asteroid mines, and other planets such as Mars.

Pilot Military Android

Built light, agile, and of higher intelligence than most other androids, these units were made in the both male and female patterns in about equal numbers — and often with enhanced appearance. While civilian android co-pilots were used in old world airlines and inter-city hover transports, primary piloting was done by trusted human operators after several infamous incidents where Mecha corrupted air crews took over flights. For the military, however, the use of android pilots was acceptable — at least in the early years of the End Time Wars.

Tanker Military Android

Although tough, these drivers of ancient armored vehicles were built smaller, more agile and better able to fit into, and move around inside many old world vehicles. While nearly all such ancient tanks, armored personnel carriers and battle trucks have long since been destroyed — or else their fuel supply long since dried up — many of these lean, highly skilled ‘tankers’ survived the ancient wars. These soldiers spread across the world and now survive however they can.

Heavy Combat Military Android

Once widely deployed on the sides of Mecha and human factions of old, their large size made them stand out, and so receive unwanted attention and multiple incoming rounds. Few of these brutes now walk the twisted world of The Mutant Epoch, but those that do are much feared, well respected, and incredibly valuable assets to any wasteland warlord or dig team. They stand at least a foot (30cm) taller than a large man, are broad of chest and shoulder and have enormous, cable knotted muscles

Grunt Military Android

By far these are the most common military androids ever made, and easily the most frequently discovered variant in the post-apocalyptic new era. Built solid, with access to plenty of spare parts from all those of their classification who fell in long ago battles, they exhibit an ideal balance of ruggedness, speed and talent to bring the hurt to the enemy. Unique specimens of this type make for exceptional excavators and can appear as males or females, are always modeled after well built human specimens of larger than average size.

Sniper Military Android

As their name implies, these stealthy, modestly sized units appear as males or females of exceptional fitness, although not large and so are more easily able to blend in with a civilian population. Masters of camouflage, concealment and marksmanship, these deadly units make for exceptional new era excavators.

Technician Android
As their name implies, these androids specialize in one main technician skill area, but often have minor qualifications in other skills, too. They were originally designed to serve alongside either industrial or scientific models, but were widely dispersed throughout the old world. Of course, with their knowledge and access to essential services, those that were corrupted by the Mecha caused devastating damage to the infrastructure of human cities and industry, and left vast swaths of the human population without food, water, heat, virtual reality up-link, air conditioning and power.
